Playoffs: Super Bowl Preview

Tiiite End Jammers (12-1) vs Fobsters (5-8)
Number one overall seed Tiiite End Jammers laid the smack down on defending champ Chunky Monkeys. It was over by early Sunday afternoon, as Lei’s resurgent franchise looked ready to cruise their way to the title game, their first since 2003 — when they won the championship with a team featuring Priest Holmes and Ahman Green. They’ll be facing off against Fobsters, who hit the Super Bowl in 2010, but haven’t found much success since, excluding last year’s Toilet Bowl win. Jimmy’s team upset Philadelphia Phreaks with an impressive performance themselves, as they took eliminated the only team with a winning record from the Spunky Misunderstood Geniuses division.

Even though Fobsters will be facing an uphill battle in this championship game, they conceivably have the chance to pull off a major upset as they’ve consistently been able to reach 120-130+ points recently. Of course, Jammers averaged 133.7 points over the regular season, so it’s going to take an all in effort for Fobsters to win.

• Tiiite End Jammers (12-1) vs Chunky Monkeys (84.5), 122.8 - 84.5
• Fobsters (5-8) vs Philadelphia Phreaks (7-6), 131.0 - 39.4

QB: Tom Brady has regained his championship form recently, posting great efforts for the past three months. Russell Wilson hasn’t been bad himself, and only a point or two separate the two quarterbacks on the season. Wilson is a bit more erratic but he’s just as capable of putting up a 30+ point game as Brady. We’ll give the edge to Brady though, as New England is more than happy to pile on the points. EDGE: Fobsters

RB: Well, Jammers have the #1 and #2 backs in football, so there’s not much to debate here. Le’Veon Bell has been incredible, and DeMarco Murray is right up there with him. Both are basically rampaging monsters and Bell has especially been on a roll recently, posting 35.4 and 44.5 points recently. Fobsters will counter with Eddie Lacy, who is having a good second half of the season, but he’s not Bell and Murray. EDGE: Jammers

WR/TE: Fobsters run a four wide attack featuring a great collection of receivers. Jordy Nelson is #2 in WR points, Dez Bryant is in the top ten, and rookie Kelvin Benjamin has refound his early season success. That fourth receiver is veteran Steve Smith, who has been alternating great weeks with decent ones. That’s not bad right? Well, the problem is that Jammers also feature some stellar receivers. In fact, Antonio Brown and Demaryius Thomas are the #1 and #3 WRs this season, and Jeremy Maclin is ranked #7, one spot ahead of Dez Bryant. So even though Fobsters have more receivers, it’s quality over quantity in this matchup, especially when you consider that Smith is sort of taking the place of one of the running backs. EDGE: Jammers

DEF/K: Usually there’s no need to cover defenses or kickers, but in this case, both teams have very highly ranked defenses. Jammers have Rams defense, who have been stifling folks recently, and have scored TDs in three of their last four weeks. Fobsters counter with a Bills defense that also has three TDs in their last four games, and just took down Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers, so there’s no telling what they could do to Derek Carr next week. EDGE: Even

Prediction: Jammers win by fifteen, without hardly breaking a sweat. This just seems like their season, and without an unfortunate (but fortunate) WK10 loss, Lei’s team would have been undefeated and then in the conversation for the greatest season ever!
